Population Health: Health & Health Behaviour at Coursera Course details
- In this introduction course on Health and Health Behaviour you will learn about the fundamentals of health psychology. What role does our behaviour, our cognitions and emotions, and our environment play in our health status?
- We?ll start with unraveling health behavior, and quite quickly put this knowledge in the perspective of health care and dealing with illness. We?ll look at what is needed for people to cope with a disease and to keep up their quality of life as good as possible. How people can be optimally supported in their healthcare process, creating a collaboration between care providers and patients. Lastly we will see how all these pieces of a puzzle can be used in creating actual interventions in healthcare and what is essential to disseminate them in healthcare practice.
- By following this course you'll get a better understanding of why we behave as we do and how this knowledge can be optimally used to improve health care!
